Sometimes when we change the new perspective, add a little innovation, maybe we can find the extraordinary from the ordinary. This issue of the translation of foreign products to express is that when the size of their own insects, the surrounding world will be transformed into a wonderful fairy tale world.
The author also mentioned here is the cooperation between parents and children. Because the material in the tutorial happens to be the author's daughter. So, the first step here is to need children to take photos, while using good Photoshop for design creation. In fact, the process of this PS work can also be seen as one of the family's parent-child activities.

First, get a new perspective
First, find a suitable background image for the work.
Step 1
Here is a stream through the pedestrian overpass, although usually walk or ride a bike after dozens of times, but the author did not notice. So I decided to take a closer look at the stream and see if I could get a new perspective.
Figure 01
Step 2
Go to the creek and see what's wrong but interesting. Then we found a green leafy plant that grew from the rock, and this plant, in its own water, looks very artistic.
Figure 02
Step 3
Take a closer look at the plant and find that if you put the camera on top of the surface of the rock, you get a low angle, the same plants, water, rocks, and the new landscape from the change of perspective. In this way, the plant is also quite interesting.

Step 4
After discovering the wonders of the Small world, try to constantly transform different lenses, adjust the camera position and focal length, the author finally determined to use the following photo, in view of the special photo, the author decided to use a mini person to design works. Here the author encourages everyone to dare to original material, rather than blindly search, but the author is also very generous to provide you with the material of the tutorial.

Second, small model
With the above scene, the author began to fantasize about turning her daughter into an ant-like figure, and then sitting on a flat leaf and fishing. Well, that's a good idea. Now take up the camera, follow the author's fantasy trip.
Step 1
Because of the need to pull the characters from the background, so the author chose the background as far as possible without clutter as a camera background, she put a background in the garage, the background with a black curtain, and then configure a few spotlights, so that the small studio. Then let her daughter hold the fishing rod, wear a cap, put pose.

Step 2
This part is actually quite interesting. The author encourages the children to do all kinds of posture, let them create their own, and even look some of the action is more funny is no problem, because this is fun. The author decided to let her daughter sit on the stool holding a fishing pole, and then took a picture, of course, there are other things such as lying, sleeping fishing in the creation.

Step 3
After taking a lot of footage, replay it, and combine the creek scene in front of you to decide which one is more appropriate. Finally, the author and her daughter chose the one sitting on the stool because it looked more innocent and happy.

III. Preparation of the project
Before the design, you need to prepare to work beforehand, such work will help to make PS creative design more efficient and smooth, and will get more fun, and finally get a satisfactory design work.
Step 1
Open just said to find a good scene picture, is the following this one.

Step 2
Images like this can be processed to make the image more beautiful. Here is a slender spider web, through the back of the rock, here using the stain healing brush tool, along it, the spider silk removed.

Four, dig out the characters
Here I am very happy, because she and the child together in PS creation, like where the father went to complete the task together, and enjoy. Now open Photoshop and start making mini characters.
Step 1
Select the Quick Selection tool, imagine the selection tool as a brush, and then draw a circle around the character to see the dotted line hovering over the area you just painted, and this is the constituency.
